The Kelly Incident

Picture the scene…

August, 1955. A warm summer’s evening, just after dark, in rural Kentucky. A bevy of crickets serenade the night. A farmer and his wife entertain friends in their modest home. Guitars picking and people singing…

A young man exits the farmhouse. Thirsty, he walks quickly to the well for a drink of water. He pulls up the bucket from the water’s depth and takes a sip. Suddenly, he sees something out of the corner of his eye…

A huge ball of light sails through the sky, plummets into the darkness, and lands a stone’s throw from him! He’s frozen in fear. A moment later, he tears back into the house and alerts the group…

The farmer grabs a shotgun. The young man grabs a .22. They walk silently onto the porch and peer into the dark, dark night…

Without warning, a large hand reaches down from the porch roof and grabs the young man by the hair! He screams as the farmer struggles to free him, and together they run out into the field. Cocking guns, the terrified witnesses turn back to get a bead on the intruder. But it’s not just one invader on the Siddon farm in Kelly, Kentucky -- there’s a whole group of creatures swarming over the farmhouse!
